高级 审计师 Chichi Bhene is known for feeding people 和 being a natural nurturer. As she says, “you don’t come to my house hungry 和 leave hungry. You certainly don’t go out with me 和 don’t grab anything to eat.” For each of the last five years, she has committed to making at least one family Christmas lunch. One meal eventually became 50 和 she lost track in between. She makes it her goal to make it a higher number each year.
In 2020 she made 62 meals 和 with her passion it grew to 150 meals in 2021. She says, “I remember how crazy 和 terrified I was as I was walking through Makro getting supplies. It’s a 150 people, that’s a large number to try 和 feed on your own but I did.”
On December 25, 2021 her 和 her siblings packed 150 meals 和 drove to a couple of shelters. Each meal they put together consists of juice, 水或调味奶, 一个橘子和一份零食, 大米, 肉汁, 鸡腿, 青豆和, 南瓜和卷心菜. Here are some fun facts to take with you that she learned during this food drive:
- 20kg of chicken drumsticks equates to a 168 individual drumsticks
- You will find a nice wholesale veggie place in the depths of Cape Town 和;
- Two heads of cabbages plus approximately 15 carrots can make coleslaw for 150 people.
Chichi reminds herself that Heaven has its own angels tasked with reminding inhabitants of this earth that humanity is not all but lost. She is extremely grateful that she has enough food for each shelter that she 和 her siblings went to.
Chichi makes the comment that almost all of us can point 和 reflect to an event in our lives that seem directly orchestrated by heaven or a greater power, “I can’t believe that happened” or “that was a miracle”. 她还在继续, “we all experience divine interventions 和 we tend to recount them over 和 over again for years.根据她的经验, 这是上帝的说法, “我在这里, I care 和 I can do what you cannot do by yourself”.
在我们开始新的一年之际, Chichi challenges you all to make tiny enormous differences, be a little less wasteful 和 give that which we no longer need. It could be the leftovers that have been sitting in the fridge for over a week 和 no one is going to eat, 它可以是任何东西. No good deed is too small a deed!
“To whom much is given, much is required!”
